<HTML>The problem is all inside my head she said to me
The answer eludes me, I can’t think logically
I need somebody’s help to set my husband free
There must be nifty ways to retrieve my lover
She said it’s really not my habit just to grieve
Furthermore I hope my baby won’t get lost or misconceived
If I repeat myself, don’t think I’m being peeved,
There must be nifty ways to retrieve my lover
I went and got back Jack
Fell in with their plan, Stan
It was just a ploy, Roy
They didn’t set him free
I wasn’t a wuss, Gus
I didn’t discuss much
Found a new key, Lee
And got myself free
I said it grieves me so to see you in such pain
I wish there were something I could do, to get him back again
She said, I appreciate that, but I wish you could explain
About these nifty ways
She said I’ll have to go and hide somewhere tonight
And perhaps in the morning I’ll begin to see the light,
But believe me I never will be giving up the fight
To find some nifty way to retrieve my lover
I went and got back Jack
Fell in with their plan, Stan
It was just a ploy, Roy
They didn’t set him free
I wasn’t a wuss, Gus
I didn’t discuss much
Found a new key, Lee
And got myself free
